    Do you ever actually pay attention to who really drives those big diesel
    duelies? Check it out - most are used for real hauling. Navigators - I
    agree with you on that point, as well as those who buy Hummers. But - they
    pay the price not you or I, so what either of us think about it does not
    matter. You may well be a bigger user of gas than either of those,
    depending on the number of miles you put on in your Sonata each year.

    And why should they pay a penalty beyond the price they already pay for the
    vehicle and fuel? You're starting to sound like you're all about penalizing
    anyone who does not fit into your definition of what is acceptable.

    That doesn't matter. The point is that you are complaining about people
    who drive trucks that get worse mileage than your Sonata. I'm simply
    point out how hypocritical you are since you are driving a vehicle that
    gets much poorer mileage than alternatives such as the Prius.

    Kind of like Al Gore in his energy guzzling mansion flying around in
    jets and complaining about global warming.

    And you with that gas guzzling Sonata that doesn't even get 30 MPG.

    They pay twice as much to go the same distance

    Didn't insult me... Your socialism does. I drive a 06 Sonata 6 cyl. Does
    that mean I'm screwing the rest of you because I did not get the 4 cyl? I
    own a 07 F150 8' bed...6 cyl. Does that mean I'm some kind of evil person
    for owning a long bed truck...or maybe I'm a saint because it's only a 6
    cyl. I don't have a 4 door 8 cyl because I can't afford one. If I could and
    I wanted one the gov. has no business telling me what to drive. It's called
    free market economics, build a vehicle that people like more than their SUVs
    and they will buy them. I have no problem with SUV getting NO special
    treatment but I do have a problem with them being penalized because some
    liberal tree hugger thinks they're evil.

    They drive boats because they are comfortable. Be careful though... some
    of those "boats" are likely to get better MPG than your Sonata. I've rented
    Park Avenues and some Cadillac's that got excellent MPG.

    With all the diesel smoke, no one will tailgate.

  8. Matt, we all know you have no valid opinion. You just zing from the
    outskirts and have no position. Troll.

  10. Geesh,ATLEAST use the right countries I'm supporting...Like The United
    It's pointless to argue with you because you seem to believe what USA
    Today tells you is truth. Sorry, you are not correct.

  11. That doesn't matter. The point is that you are complaining about people
    Matt, again, you're twisting the argument to suit your logical
    fallacy. I think we already figured you read Republican 101 material
    with these arguments (or Ann Coulter???) because it's easier for you
    to go on tangents rather than stick to the original point of the
    argument. Does the term non sequitur mean anything to you because it's
    what you just did. As usual, you've nothing that constitutes a
    position and choose cheap zings and pot shots as a statement of fact.

    So now I'm a hypocrite because I don't OWN a Prius? I don't WANT to
    own a Prius because, for my purposes, family size, and overall use,
    it's too small. The point, originally, is that SUV's and large trucks
    are not subject to what's in the Energy Tax Act of 78. That's all I
    ever stated, you added all this garbage, not me. I said to level the
    playing field, not complain about trucks. I can complain with the best
    of them but it's just opinion. Buy whatever friggin vehicle you want
    but bring the law up to date with today's vehicles. Are you clear on
    this point now? It's not possible to make it any more lucid. I'm not
    speaking in Chinese.

    What does this have to do with the ETA 78?

    "Why should the rest of America pay for your overconsumption of gas? So
    what if you have the money, you anti-americanism stinks."

    Or this?

    "No one needs a crew-cab V8 with 8ft bed or
    dualie to get groceries or drive to the office. Same for Hummers, same
    for Navigators, same for blah blah blah. But, people can do whatever
    they want with their money. If you can afford it, good for you. Don't
    screw the rest of the American populous in the interim with you
    obsession with waste and consumerism. Exxon is happy that you've
    helped them break a global record for profit on gas this past year.
    Yay for you. May the Arab Oil Czars put their blessing on you and your
    family. Allah Ahkbar."

    You simply think that your vehicle is the gold standard for what fuel
    mileage should be and anyone who drives a vehicle that gets less mileage
    than your current vehicle is wasteful.

    I'm simply pointing out your elitism and hypocrisy. I'm sorry it
    stings, but sometimes that is the way the truth is.

    Funny, it seems that the opinions of the group are running unanimously
    against you. So who has the more valid opinion?

  18. You may have made that comment in jest, but exactly that was suggested by a
    writer to the Editor of the Hartford Courant. Inspired by a couple of
    recent articles about farmland being developed and lack of starter houses, a
    writer suggested that couple with no children be made to move from their
    large homes so others with greater need for space for families can take them
    over. Older couples should move to a condo or small apartment.

    Point of fact - I owned a Buick Park Avenue Ultra with a supercharged 3.8L
    V-6. I put over 225,000 miles on that car in complete luxury, and it easily
    rolled its way down the interstate at over 30mpg. Around town the car got
    24mpg. Talk about fast... the supercharged 3.8 was just fast. Great car.
    But of course, it was one of those "boats"...
